    Nah Spook just trying to get a rise out of our South Island cousins but it hasn't been working.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I am not surprised that your plan is not working, because as much as I hate to admit it, they have beers that wouldn't give Waikato shelf space and am much gracious that they allow us in the North to import it.

    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    Yeh but for christsakes don't tell them that. It is hard enough putting up with their "I've got more thumbs than you" attitude. Ha ha ha ha

    The classic HV sight-in from time immemorial was an inch high at 50yds which gives a 75yd zero and it's about 3" down at 100. From memory, the bullet comes up through the line of sight at 16yds with an average scope height.
